I I recieved an unlock code for my HD2, and it says Pin Accepted, but remains locked.
Am i doing something wrong?
SIM unlock will work from Windows Mobile. Not sure about Android and WP7 though.
I had the same issue. I can confirm it only works running Android or Windows Mobile. And not Windows Phone 7.

Hello,
I try to sim unlock a Wizard G4 of my friend. I already flashed the touch HD rom on it and it works, but I can't unlock the device. I already have the correct unlock code, but it loops or something. First i need to enter my pin, then i get the unlock stuff, then I put in unlock code, but then it goes back to pin again, and again. I am confused , can anyone help?
Use 'lokiwiz03a' tool again to generate a new SIM unlock code and than try again,hope it works this time
I already fixed it . The code was totally correct, but I tried to unlock it on a custom wm 6.1 rom isntead of the original rom of the telephone, so it didn't work. I downloaded the original latest rom of the phone and then put in the unlock code and voila, unlocked!
Hello folks, I have purchased a US T-Mobile G1 from the market on this forum and it was unlocked and rooted with latest version of cyanogen mod. Yesterday night while playing with the phone ( I am totally noob with the G1 ) I accidentally wiped everything back to the stock fw, so I lost dangerSPL, HDBoot and also the recovery partition has been corrupted.
Now with the stock firmware I am stuck with the google account sync even though if I press the menu button the APN editing option comes up and it lets me add the APN of my Italian sim card, but no matter what I do it just don't work, it keep say there's a problem with my SIM card network, and to try again.
Also when I turn on the phone I can see a screen that says Aperture Laboratories, with a draw of a cake which says "don't worry u still got root"
What is that??? a sort of perm root??
I been googling for a whole day now about how to bypass this process and I don't seems to have found any working informations.
Can anyone help me please ??? I am desperate ...
The only guide apparently working regarding bypassing the google account sync I have found is this one http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f606/bypass-t-mobile-g1-google-activation-phonecarecenter-781472/ , the problem is I can't just get to install the correct driver on Windows XP SP2/SP3 neither on Windows 7 32bit, I have tried the impossible, but it just doesnt work, and with the default windows 7 driver it can't be seen through adb devices... Is there a way to do it on Linux or Mac ??? Any working usb driver for Linux or osx ???
Does anyone have any idea??? I think the only way to activate this G1 is with a T-Mobile US sim card which I don't have and I don't have chance to get as I am in Italy, any help please ??? If I don't get that god damn home screen I wont be able to do anything ....
Umm - me too,in the same place .
Can't make my Windows (and i tried to use XP an Vista) to recognize HTC G1 as phone, not 'usb mass storage device'
I have successfully activated my G1 through wifi. Regarding the driver installation, I have went through this guide and I have followed it to letter, and it worked, hopefully it will work out for u..
So i purchased sim unlock code online for my hd2 which is running WP7. I inserted the AT&T sim card and turned the phone on. The first thing phone requested pin, i entered it and it said that pin accepted but the phone is still locked. Every time im trying to call it asks for pin again and it says pin required. What should i do to get it working??
I have the exact same issue. Anyone? I've tried apn settings, rebooting, etc.
I fixed this! If you load android on an sd and boot it and then put in the lock code it will unlock your device. I used Copenhagen's Gingerbread. After that, boot into WP7 and it should display your carrier name. Try this Wolk and tell me what you think, and click thanks if you think I helped at all.
How did you do this? Im having trouble with only one sd-card 2gb
Hey guys
I purchased a Telus Optimus 7 phone and I'm trying to unlock it. I got the code from a specific website... but when I put in my SIM card (from another provider) the phone prompts that "the sim is locked and you need a PUK". I got the PUK from my service provider but when I enter it... it gives me a SIM ERROR message. I know that the phone is suppose to prompt me to "enter pin" but it doesnt do it. Am I doing something wrong ?
Everyone looking to unlock their LG Optimus 7, heed my warning!
DO NOT ENTER A WRONG UNLOCK CODE MORE THAN 2 TIMES! IT WILL LOCK ITSELF ON THE WRONG 3RD ATTEMPT.
If you do, it's really locked and needs to be either re-sent to LG/carrier or completely re-flashed. The PUK it's asking is "Phone Unlock Key", not "PIN Unlock Key". Which means the phone itself is "locked" not NCK locked.
Btw, same thing happened to me.
whoa... think that in his case is the Personal unlocking code, not the Phone unlocking code... if u put the original SIM card the phone works? if so, or the SIM that ask you the PUK is fried or you just really don't have unlocked the phone
I've purchased an unlock code but it's asking for a PUK Key as well. How do I figure this out? Google hasn't helped. Is this a key Telus can provide? Or do I need a new SIM card (could mine have some kind of lock on it?)
Thanks!
I have tha same problem, does any one how to make my phone works, or to find a PHONE unlock key(PUK) without contacting AT&T (the original's phone carrier) because I don't use AT&T service, but I want to unlock my phone ... my LG quantum says ''your phone is locked, contact you service provider for an unlock code''
Here's a pretty tricky question and I'd really appreciate if someone could find a solution to it.
I purchased a "wrecked" Dell Venue Pro without a micro SD card (well, actually I've purchased three of them and been able to "ressurrect" two of them) and it had the strangest kind of symptom: it freezes (I mean totally) every once in a while. The OS was Windows Phone 7.5.
So I couldn't do anything to the phone becase it was freezing all the time so I "unbricked" it with updatewp and ffu file. The phone returned back to Windows Phone 7004.
But there's still something wrong with the bootloader. If I try to change the region, try to put my SIM card in or try to sync the phone with WIFI, it freezes again. Zune tells me "the region and the clock are different on the phone than my computer's" (I'm Finnish and the region on the phone is USA).
I can enter to bootloader but in the "normal" operation the phone freezes again when it's connected to my computer.
So my question is: can I update the bootloader with updatewp and wp cabupdater in bootloader mode since it seems to work, well at least for that ffu file? And if yes, do I have to change the date and the clock of my computer to match the ones in Dell Venue Pro because I cannot alter its settings without getting it to freeze.
Any other hints how I could "ressurrect" the phone? Thanks in advance!
